The Impossible Fortune reunites the Thursday Murder Club—Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim—for a quieter year disrupted by personal milestones: Joyce plans her daughter Joanna's wedding, Elizabeth grapples with grief, Ron faces family troubles, and Ibrahim continues therapy sessions with a criminal, until Elizabeth encounters a wedding guest named Nick in peril from a kidnapping and suspicious death. As the group investigates Nick's disappearance and the murder of his business partner Holly, they unravel a villain's quest for an uncrackable code hiding £350 million in bitcoin, navigating alliances, betrayals, and high-stakes puzzles while Joanna joins the effort to avert further tragedy. Blending humor, heartfelt reflections on aging and loss, and twisty plotting in the Coopers Chase retirement village, the novel explores friendship, resilience, and the thrill of detection amid themes of trust and family, delivering another captivating entry praised for its character depth and lighthearted suspense.
